I work in comms.

@BBCRadio4 Harold Pinter apparently once ordered in a restaurant and his waiter replied "no problem!" Pinter's reply: "I wasn't anticipating a problem."

@LondonBlitz @LondonBlitzU19 @TheMainShow_ Hi folks - is there another taster coming for under 19s. I know there was a season today which we couldn’t make

[Michael Connellan @MikeConnellan]

2021 was the year the Cambridge United squad nearly fell through a roof 😆💛🖤

#MyTop10 🎥⚽️ - Number 1️⃣

It has to be THOSE scenes after Grimsby, I don’t think we’ll ever experience anything like that season again.

To capture those scenes on video, and to have that for the rest of time is priceless.

Happy New Year U’s 🖤💛

“Cancel the #Olympics... not just in 2022 but for good...”
The most radical idea I’ve read in @TheEconomist for a while.

You do all the real hard work @JDRFUK @JDRFResearch @JDRF let’s find that cure and change the lives of so many families all over the world! #type1 #letsfindthatcure

@parthaskar Sharing this with my nurse wife, thanks Partha

@glennebrey What were they thinking? Flipping heck they’ve given up

[Michael Connellan @MikeConnellan]

We are very proud @JDRFUK to have @ShekuKM as an ambassador of our charity. Hugely inspirational man.

[Adrian Long @AdrianLong3]

Delighted to see that one of #GBDoc's finest, @ShekuKM received his utterly deserved MBE yesterday.
One couldn't wish to hear a more spellbinding performer nor meet a more grounded celebrity. How privileged we were to meet and hear him at @t1st_ar Live.

To my comment on the word "P*ki" being unacceptable and not banter, here are some responses on Linked In.

People with their job titles clearly in the public domain and zero issues with defending the use of the term

Good morning to you all.

[Partha S Kar 🇮🇳🇬🇧🏏🎥 @parthaskar]

Organising events dedicated to those with #T1Diabetes beyond the national role?

Has been some of the fabulous moments in the career

Never has there been a better education as regards #T1Diabetes

#ComicBooks #TAD #ArT1st #T1DRoTM

What a wonderful community indeed #gbdoc

[Adrian Long @AdrianLong3]

Hmmm. I'd be interested to hear expert responses to this prominent story on BBC website today. To my knowledge the test is nothing new so potential to spread false hopes?
@parthaskar et al #GBDoc?

Bravo to Professor Kar and others - for these new insights on the postcode lottery of access to insulin pumps - and on disparities linked to gender, ethnicity, and living in areas of high deprivation.
